Creating appsync on AWS and lambda's using CDKTF

Terraform

Can someone please point me in the direction of where the documentation is and examples are for creating an appsync backend in AWS with Lambda’s. This is something i can easily do using AWS CDK and their documentation is outstanding. But I am not finding the same for CDkTF. I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction ?

Also, I can create the basic appsync service, but am having difficulty in understanding how to use CDKTF to tie this to the resolver’s and corresponding lambda’s and set the schema:

const graphQL = new AppsyncGraphqlApi(this, “backEndAPI”, { schema: “./graphql/schema.graphql”, name: “TestAlanAppsync”, authenticationType: “API_KEY” });

In the above that I did, it creates the basic service, but cannot find the schema. I’d really love to see examples for good documentation. Thanks!

Ok, I was able to now pull in the schema by doing this:

const schemafile = readFileSync(‘./graphql/schema.graphql’, ‘utf-8’);

console.log(" File is: " + schemafile);

const graphQL = new AppsyncGraphqlApi(this, "backEndAPI", { schema: schemafile,  name: "TestAlanAppsync", authenticationType: "API_KEY" });

So, I am reading the file and then inserting the entire contents in. I don’t prefer that as with AWS’s CDK, I could do this:

const api = new appsync.GraphqlApi(this, “Api”, {
name: env.env_builder.graph_ql_name,
schema: appsync.Schema.fromAsset(“graphql/schema.graphql”),

and have it read the file automatically. Much cleaner an approach. I am really looking to see if the same level of maturity is built into this CDKTF as already exists in AWS CDK but so far am not seeing it.
